Title: Eth diff adjustable? Post by: TheMimic1 on March 23, 2021, 10:51:01 AM Anyone knows how to reduce or use a fixed difficultly in miners? I'm using NBminer mining ethereum and I'm looking for how to adjust pool difficultly, I knew this used to be possible on cryptonight pools for monero but I've never done such with eth

Post by: HashingTower on March 23, 2021, 03:08:38 PM I think eth pools have fixed difficultly settings by default, on binance it's 2.14g showing on my miner software and on Viabtc it's 500M so Viabtc have lower difficulty settings meaning you will find shares faster if you are using low hashrate, it's better to just change pool
Title: Re: Eth diff adjustable? Post by: Vann on March 23, 2021, 07:15:30 PM The share difficulty is set by the pool. Some pools on other coins let you set your starting difficulty in the miner, or use VarDifff. Since ETH is the most popular minable coin with the largest base of miners, most ETH pools set a fixed share difficulty so as not to overload the stratum with low difficulty shares which can also cause stale shares. The share difficulty is stated on the pool or in the miner. A higher difficulty means worker shares are found less often, but they are worth proportionally more than lower difficulty shares. Unless you have a very low hashrate (<20 MH/s), the payout should be the same. e.g. a share at diff 4000 is worth twice as much as a share at diff 2000.

The hashrate depends on the processor, motherboard and RAM frequency.Ethereum is a simpler algorithm and most miners set the necessary settings depending on your video card. You don't need to devote a lot of time to this issue. Title: Re: Eth diff adjustable?

Been that way for a long time now. Changed over 11/30/2019.

You don't need to devote a lot of time to this issue. Ethereum hashrate depends only on the graphics card. Motherboard, memory frequency does not affect it. (3060 is an exception, for a farm on these video cards you need a special 8x8x8x8x motherboard). What video cards do you have a problem with when mining Ethereum? |
